Alien world

Chapter 1257 179. Erase Everything

"Chew, chew, chew..."

Annan held a fruit that looked like sugarcane but tasted like bread, and mixed in the crowd to watch the fun.

The guards took the prisoner to the gallows, put the rope on him, and removed the rag from his mouth.

"My accomplices will not let you go! They are as cunning and vicious as wolves. After they capture your town, they will pull out your intestines and hang you like you hanged me - Gah!"

The prisoner's harsh words came to an abrupt end as the trapdoor beneath his feet suddenly opened.

Squeak, squeak, squeak—

The prisoner swayed in the wind. After watching the excitement, Annan stuffed the last bite of breadfruit into his mouth, turned around and walked out of the town.

After leaving Zhiou Town, Annan came to this small town located on the outskirts of the Mountain Fortress Territory. A few dozen miles ahead was the Mountain Fortress Territory of Sir Makarov.

The rumors about the evil dragon came from there.

Annan originally wanted to be a low-key dragon-slaying hero, but when he rode a white dragon and arrived above the mountain fortress in the dawn light, the whole territory was echoed with the noisy sound of bells.

Dang——dang——dang——

It was like the sound of a death knell for an impending disaster, leaving Annan unsure whether he should land.

How come the people here can’t even tell the difference between a white dragon and a blue dragon?

However, they are both evil five-colored dragons, so it really doesn't matter whether you can tell them apart...

Tearing open a magic scroll of amplification, Annan hovered over the mountain fortress: "We are not evil dragons!"

"I know!"

Shouts came from the ground.

While Annan was still wondering what this meant, another voice came from the ground: "Lord Annan, is that you?"

"I'm Annan Reeves, who are you?"

"I'm Ruth, Miss Joan's bodyguard!"

Wasn't Joan in the Kingdom of Damon? Why did she come to the Broken Mountains?
The alarm bells of the mountain castle below were gradually fading away. After confirming that it was not a trap, Annan let the last white dragon of Free City land in the open space in front of the castle.

"I'm sorry, Lord Annan, I disappoint you..." The guard named Ruth looked ashamed.

Next to him stood a nobleman who was dressed elegantly and had eyes that looked as attentively at him as the girls in Liberty City, making him hard to ignore.

"What got me down?"

"You don't know?" Ruth was stunned.

what do you know?
However, the eyes of the nobles beside him became more and more fiery, and Annan couldn't help but pay attention...

"I came here following Elimoas... Where's Joan?"

"That's right!"

The guard exclaimed, and the misunderstandings on both sides coincided with each other: "Joan eloped!"

"Where's Elimoas?"

"Ilimoyas eloped too!"

Annan was dumbfounded, and then felt something was wrong: "They both eloped with the same person?"

"Yeah!" The guard nodded at first, then shook his head quickly after realizing what was happening: "No, they eloped!"

Annan was stunned for a long time, and suddenly reached out to pull the guard's face: "Stop pretending, Zhiouzhen, I just left a message to ridicule you, is there any need to chase me and tease me?"

"Lord Annan, I am not teasing you..."

"Really?"

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask Sir Makarov!"

Finally, he was mentioned, and the middle-aged noble next to him couldn't help but take a step forward.

Annan let go of Root's face and said, "Hello, Lord Makarov."

"In front of you, I am just a small noble..."

Sir Makarov was very humble and wanted to kiss the back of Annan's hand, but Annan dodged him.

"What's this elopement that Ruth was talking about?" "Well... it's like this, when Miss Montreal came..."

Sir Makarov recounted what happened after Joan arrived. Apart from being speechless about “Ilimayas is the dragon and the dragon is Elimayas”, he was also curious about one thing.

"What is Joan doing here?"

"Lord Annan, Miss Joan said that the Kingdom of Damon doesn't need her help. She said that Liberty City is short of coal, so she brought me and Ivanson to the Broken Mountains, hoping to cooperate with Sir Makarov..."

"What's up with that Killian?"

"He wanted to force cooperation because of Miss Joan's 'identity', but he didn't expect Miss Joan to not want to cooperate at all. It just so happened that the 'evil dragon' was Miss Ilimoyas, so he rescued her."

"How dare he, a mere lord?"

Not to mention Joan's fake identity as the "Imperial Princess", she is a genuine envoy from Liberty City... Is it because the Broken Mountains are too remote that she has never heard of the deeds of Liberty City?
"Lord Annan, you don't know..." Sir Makarov followed Guard Root and used honorifics: "Killian is the nephew of Lord Raymond. There are also rumors that he was born to Raymond and his brother's wife. He has been loved since he was a child..."

Annan understood. A noble who was spoiled, had a closed territory, and knew nothing about the outside world, and thought he was omnipotent?

"Oh, look at this!"

Guard Ruth thought of something and took out a wanted warrant from his arms and gave it to Annan.

tear-

Annan took it and looked at it for a few seconds, then tore open the wanted poster and spoke in a low voice.

"If you are too domineering, you are seeking death!"

……

An ordinary mountain village in the Broken Mountains.

At this time, the villagers were filled with joy, and the children were chasing and playing, as if celebrating the arrival of the festival.

All this was thanks to the noble woman on the gallows.

The woman was still very young, and her pale cheeks were full of sadness, which made people feel sorry for her, but the generous reward of 100 kinaers could make up for all the guilt of the villagers.

"Hang her."

The village chief raised his cane, and the militiamen stepped onto the gallows, pulled the hemp rope, and prepared to hang Joan.

A huge shadow fell from the sky, and the wind and waves it created blew away a large number of villagers.

Joan's gray eyes finally became a little alert and focused on the blue dragon, whose throat emitted bursts of low thunder.

"Why are you here..."

"You've been out for a long time."

"Well...I...you saw it." Joan, who was tied up bloatedly with hemp ropes, shook her body.

The surrounding villagers were shouting and crying as they ran away, but the blue dragon ignored them. Its huge eyes only reflected Joan.

"You seem very sad."

Elimois was almost used to Joan's constant chattering even while she was working, and this silent and unhappy look was unfamiliar to her.

"They lied to me..."

Ilimayas raised her head, spread her dragon wings, and her roar echoed over the village.

"I'm going to wipe out everything here!"

The entire village couldn't even muster a team of elites, so how could it resist a blue dragon in its youth?

Ilimoyas circled at low altitude, spewing out streams of azure dragon breath.

The village chief who was hit by the dragon's breath wailed and died in pain. Timmy and his mother disappeared in the lightning.

The militia shot their arrows tremblingly, and they hit the dragon scales and bounced off like they were hitting steel plates.

Finally, the blue dragon landed back in front of Joan.

Except for her, there was no one standing in the whole village.

Joan looked up from the shadows: "Can you erase me too?"

Elimoas stared down at her, then reached out a paw—and gently touched Joan's nose.
